New Zealand Fashion Design
Author(s): Angela Lassig
Secondhand.
New Zealand Fashion Design celebrates New Zealand's top contemporary fashion designers, showcasing their work and encapsulating the developments in this fast-moving creative field over the past thirty years. New Zealand's designers are as diverse as their creations, and together they have brought New Zealand fashion to the attention of the international fashion world. 25 individual designers are profiled in the book, from veterans like Marilyn Sainty and Zambesi's Elizabeth Findlay to commercial success stories like Trelise Cooper. Based on one-on-one interviews with Te Papa's fashion curator, these profiles are also generously illustrated with literally hundreds of catwalk and editorial photographs and material from each designers' own archives and collections, plus a generous sample of the garments they have designed over the years. This way, New Zealand Fashion Design gives readers an up-close look at the clothes themselves and - behind the scenes - provides real insights into each designer's work methods, design philosophy and inspiration.
Near fine.
